The People's Committee of Song Cau town has recently held a press conference to announce the first Song Cau Lobster Festival in 2022. Accordingly, the lobster festival is expected to take place on July 30 and 31 in Xuan Dai Bay urban area (Xuan Phu ward).
The festival is held to “spark the fire” within the land as well as the aquaculture that has been developing for more than 30 years. The event aims toward building a strong and sustainable "capital of lobster" that has the capability to meet the needs of domestic and world markets after the Covid-19 pandemic.
